Catching up... Spring

I think we stopped posting when the snow overtook our lives. We're well into spring now and happy to be outside!  

Here's our piano recital pics!  Ross practicing first. 

Jane at soccer practice. 

Big wheels on circular ave!  

Geocaching on Coolidge hill  We found the hidden treasure. 

Basketball blues and ballet tradegy

You can't tell by the picture, but the Red Hawks lost a battle of a game to Ashland.  turner had the game tying assist to send it to overtime. Great season!  Very special time for dad and t. 

And it was a huge treat to take Jane to the boston ballet. I can't explain why I love the ballet so much but I am thrilled Jane is right there with me. We saw the Lady of Camillia. Love triangle tradegy that ends in death  pretty heavy stuff but an amazing show!!  Jane with her friend Victoria. 

The girls in awe of the entry way at the Boston Opera House. 

Hanging out after school 

Ross and Jules becoming friends. 

Lots of reasons to celebrate.

Jane at the first grade force and motion/simple machine fair. The principal invited her to bring her machine to the school fun fair next fall she like it so much. It has a pulley and a ramp. If you catch the ball on the way down, you win a munchkin.  

Next up, Turner's first sleep over. Night sledding, Indiana jones and the crystal skull, I dare you games and breakfast in the morning!  It was a magical night, one that I wanted to freeze. 

Soccer freestyle competition for turner and  cupcake war theme:  soccer. Competing were jane, Georgia, Matt and I. Hank was the judge.  He said gg won because she was the youngest. 

Finally, here's how Jules is doing...

Notice the teeth marks in the book. 

Gg training her today...

Georgia keeping life interesting

Batman is here!

Her favorite lunch...Nutella, peanut butter and jam cracker stack made by her, of course. 

"Helping" with Ross. 

Hanky after hockey. Can you say teenager?  

And Ross being admired by the team. 

Happy Valentines day.

A box of cakes from mom and dad, chocolates from Nanny and Papa, Lego creations the kids made and flowers to brighten all the white. We had a day with sports, fevers, German pancakes for dinner and chola the dipped strawberries for dessert. Happy to be on school break!  Hoping we can get to Vermont tomorrow. 

Snow up to the first floor windows

Happy birthdays!

Ross is one. Turner 10. Who knew that a decade could be so full?  Were so grateful for all the love and support that has brought us this far. We couldn't have done it without you. 

Celebrating with snow!

Its like confetti is falling from the sky around here. A very happy crowd gets another snow day. Pats moms everywhere hope there is school tomorrow.  

Here are a few shots from last night after the game. 

Not tears of joy for hank, the sea hawks fan. 

A very New England sports day.

Turner scored his first shot in basketball, their team won and then he and Matt headed into the celtics game. 

1 minute left in the patriots game with one Seattle fan and a whole lot of pats fans.
